Sat, 09 Feb 2013 00:43:51 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=243601#comment-6709820Pipeline limitations also limit fracking by lowering the price of U.S. crude to where it’s borderline profitable to get it out of the ground. But as noted with Keystone, it’s not just DOE that can block things like fracking or transmission lines, it’s EPA, Interior with the Bureau of Land Management, and in the Trans-Canada case, even the State Department.

Obama can pick someone more pro-fracking for Energy Secretary, but there’s still loads of other options and ideologues in the administration to hinder it.

Embrace fracking, and you alienate the greenies into a fratricidal frenzy. Reject fracking, and we’ll see how voters who voted for a free pack of $9 birth control pills watch inflation eat away the manicure money left on the EBT.

Hmm: Obama considering fracking proponent for Energy?

Huzzah! …Er, maybe? Hopefully? When I say “proponent,” I mean that in the sort of weak-tea, oh-so-careful, still-a-greenie-enthusiast, bureaucratic sense of the word, and I don’t want to speak too soon (Lisa Jackson was a kind of Fracking “Supporter” In Name Only), but… at least it isn’t one of those fossil fuel-loathing, hardcore eco-zealots currently lobbying President Obama so hard against the practice of hydraulic fracturing altogether.

I know this is Obama we’re talking about, so obviously the green-energy subsidies and pious regulations are not going away, and we won’t be fully turning on the tap with our drilling operations, but at least this guy sounds willing to acknowledge and even promote the simple fact that natural gas

Probably the best we can do with Dear Liar.

/perception trumps reality in the liberal world of political correctness

American boys and girls are endowed by their creator with a knack of getting it right.

I bet this guy gets practical and creative before very long. It doesn’t require rocket science.

It is like Churchill’s comment about “..America always doing the right thing after they try everything else….”

My only real, set and clear failure path for him seems to be the foreign policy area. He seems less like the handsome American boy when the attention goes there.
